i want to make a 8x8 WS2812B from a strip because i want to make it flexible i know there is a flexible matrix 8x8 WS2812B but its really hard to find in my country, so i decide to make one from a strip and glue them together on a leather or something flexy, and the question is,
is this pattern same as the 8x8 matrix?
if i use an adafruit neopixel lib will it run?
Just pay attention to the numbering of the LEDs (as you sketched it yourself) to program the animations.
I suggest you use the FastLED library, which is more powerful and faster than Neopixel.

thankyou so much for your attention replying to this i really appreciate it, this way i have confidence to buy the materials
lesept:
it's different: the led matrix from ebay is roughly 3cm x 3cm and the other is 10cm x 10cm
indeed the size will be different. maybe ill try with 144 WS2812B to make it more solid.
DrAzzy:
The led matrix also isn't 2812 - it is a matrix, so you need to handle the multiplexing, and it's not as bright (since duty cycle is lower)
To be honest i dont really know much about the programming but i tried the example matrix and it run properly. and also i tried another matrix program and it works im so glad, now i need to learns some codes and modify it.
